yeah, that surprised the heck out of us that the old trad gang ubbclassic forum software saved all PM's and even if you deleted them, it didn't!

you can "prune" them out with a selective range ...

I am having difficulty posting photos that were taken with an iPhone then stored on my MAC. I can select photos that were taken with my trail cam and stored on my MAC and that works just fine.
Any ideas?
Thank you,Tedd

you'll just need to know where you stored that image on your mac.  then select it for attaching to your post.

also, while there are no image or file size restrictions to this site, trying to upload mega large images may time out!   there is no need for an image to be wider than 1000 or so pixels.

open this video up full screen, to better see the typing and cursor movements ...

If we don't delete the old PM's is this going to cause a problem?  The old forum had a 50 PM limit.

How do we edit posts that we have made?  In the old forum there was a button we could press at the top of the post we wanted to edit, but I don't see that now.  Oh, I just saw the "modify" button for this post.  But I don't see it for a post I made a while ago.  Can posts only be edited for a short while after they are made?

I too like this!!!  Curiosity question.  The arrow heads below the user name and above the avatar.  2 grey, 3 purple, 4 greens (obviously a moderator)  some with yellow.  Is there a "legend" that defines the different number and color of arrow heads??

Just wondering what the significance is.

Just tried posting a photo from my iPad and it didn't work. Apparently my photo files are .jpeg which are not allowed.  How can I fix this? Thanks

I like the new digs. I especially like the Simple Machines software; I'm very used to it.

In most cases you can just rename the image extension to .jpg
Which should work here
They are one and the same formats.

In early days they were jpeg but windows forced them to use a shorter extension of JPG
You can read up on it at:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/23424399/jpg-vs-jpeg-image-formats

FYI,
Rob just added .jpeg as a allowed image format so they should work now.

I changed the log in time from 60 minutes to "always logged in". Does someone know if that affects anything... are there any consequences to doing that?

Thanks,  Ken
